# Help Text

**Help Text** is like a friendly assistant right on your product page — giving customers extra guidance about an option.\
It appears **just below the option** and can explain its purpose, give tips, or outline any requirements.

**Example:**\
If you offer **engraved jewelry**, your Help Text might say:

> *"Engraving is limited to 20 characters, including spaces."*

This can also be set for each option value:&#x20;

**Why it matters:**

* Prevents confusion and errors.
* Ensures customers know exactly what’s expected.
* Helps them make the right choice the first time.

💡 **Pro tip:** Keep your Help Text short, clear, and customer-friendly — too much detail can overwhelm shoppers.
